Original Daytona Coupe vs original GT40

[Naumoff]

So do you feel that Shelby's unfinished 427 Coupe could have won overall at Le Mans? The Daytona Coupe is a pretty awesome machine and before Shelby's team took over the GT40, the 289 Coupe was not that much behind it.

1. The Daytona was a Shelby American product, through and through, and was fast from the outset; 2. the GT40 in Shelby American's hands became a very fast car.

Shelby American had their sh*t together. A fully developed Super Coupe would truly have been an awesome car, certainly with the potential to win LeMans overall.

Where would a 427 GT, fully developed in Shelby American hands, have pushed the envelope?
